In view of this fact it has been sug- gested by the adornment committee that possibly a corporation may be formed to purchase the site and erect upon it a handsome new building. The , representatives of the institute have | assured the promoters of the auditor- {lum project that their organization will consider any reasonable proposi- | tion to sell the site, especially to any ‘C(»r],or-’luon representing the city’s in- terests, —— | Lectures Before Camera Club.

With an almost useless pump, leaking ship, an ignorant, timid, native crew, against ceaseless gales and rolling seas, the sturdy skipper worked his water-logged craft up the lati- tudes. He took passage through the coral groups, running under short sail to keep his schooner from laboring over the swells and splitting wide open, and then this follower of the Vikings of the north kept on, dropping the knots behind him—and he is here. His vessel, as she now lies at an- i chor in the harbor, is leaking many gallons every hour, and a tattooed de- nibal dragging the crazy pump- ‘handle up and down, up and down, as it has been going for weeks, never los- ing a stroke night or day. { There are two feet of water in the hold, and the Caroline Islander, bend- ing his brown back over the pump brake, can’t make it any less. LOG OF THE VESSEL. The log of the schooner is not writ ten very plainly. Captain Beguhl ex: piains that he was too worn out try- ing to keep afloat and keep himself and the eight islanders above the sharks to turn to literature. However, the record of grit and endeavor is there. It says the vessel left Ponape, Caroline Islands, August 17, is pearl shells and 250 pounds of ivory nuts consigned to 1. E. Thayer, San | Francisco. The vessel was in need of repairs and leaked considerably, and a strong solthwest wind kicked up a heavy sea and made matters | worse. To shorten the way the cap- | tain cut through the Marshall and Bi- | kini islands, and the continued gale and high s the old hull more, and the ocean slip- ped in at every thump of the wave. | When the skipper could have put on the canvas and sped harborward he did net dare do so, as the increased motion over the 1ls would be too much for a pump such as was used in the ships of Tyre. Then the rigging carried away, “first on one side and | then the other,” says the log, “‘with | only one sailor to help on repairs.” Stoppers were put on, and with block | and tackle the broken swifters were hauled taut., The chain-plate bolts ! drew out, but the rigging was fastened ito the rails, and the pump and the { | schooner went merrily on. The weather moderating the captain {and such of his men who could work | got at some of the leaks and stuffed |them with canvas. Then the fight | between the pump and thesPacific | slackened up, and the log says the | schooner made less water. PUMPS KEPT GOING. A man was kept at the pump all the time, and all went passably well until the schooner got to the longitude of the Hawaiian Islands, when the | wind grew shifty and squally. Then the | wind and seas came from all direc- tions. From every point of the com- s came a yelling blast of gale with a swell that tried to lick the clouds out of the sky. More water spouted | through the opening seams, and more | muscle was put at the pump. The vessel labored fearfully, and on the | crest of some great sea it was feared she would split in halves. The pump choked up and the captain opened the main hatch and got down among the cargo and cleared the pipe. After- ward the crew took the pump out of its place, put it down the main hatch | and succeeded in keeping the water at a safe level. A shift of men went into the hold and boarded up the cargo so it would not shift. Had the schooner gone on her beam ends she could not have | been righted. The skipper tried to make one of the Hawaiian Islands, but the wind shifted and the was forced to set a course for San Fran- clsco. Head winds were encountered during the voyage here. So. fathom by fathom, ecrazy pump marking off the slow knots, the Karl and Ella weathered the storm, and Skipper Beguhl is here. The vessel is now leaking at her an- chorage and the puthp is still working to keep the water down, e e Hear Noted Bible Teacher. Dr. James M. Gray, the noted Bible {teacher from the East, gave an in- | terpretation of Christ's teachings con- cerning prayer last evening at the First Presbyterian Church, Van Ness avenue. ers with his lucid and deeply interest- ing treatment of his Biblical subjects. He leaves this morning for Sacramen- to and will return to preach at the First Presbyterian Church next Sunday morning. In the evening of the same | | i | | vary Church, Fillmore street. B S Firemen Are Kept Busy. A fire in the oilroom of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Light Company’s works at Fifth and Te- hama streets caused considerable alarm in that neighborhood last night. The fire started near the large gas tank, but was soon extinguished. The cause is unknown. A blaze in a tene- ment-house at 925-27 Natoma street did about $2500 worth of damage later in the evening.

Frances Forsyth Uses ! a Gun in Shooting Gal- i lery and Hits Proprietor PrelbIS e IT WAS ACCIDEN' i SA Eye Witness Declares Weap- | on Was Deliberately Aimed | at the Woman’s Vietim | s The body of Am Noda, proprietor of a shooting gallery at 815 Kearny street, lies on a slab at the Morgue. Mrs. Flor- ence Forsyth, 2410 Jones street, occu- pies a cell at the Hall of Justice and to-day she probably will be formally | charged with his murder. The Jap- anese was shot through the\brain yes- terday morning by a bullet from one of his own target rifles, which he had just handed to the woman. He died at the Central Emergency Hospital at 1:15 o’clock this morning. Mrs. Foraylgx claims the shooting was accidental, but an eye-witness of the | tragedy declares she turned around and aimed deliberately at Noda. Mrs. Forsyth was under the influence | of liguor when she entered the shooting ! gallery between 11 and 12 o clock yes- terday morning. She paid Noda ten | cents and he handed her a 22-caliber | rifle, which he had loaded. The woman [raised the rifle to her shoulder and ! swung around. Just then the rifle was | discharged and the Japanese dropped to the floor with a groan. Policeman T. J. Kavanaugh and Spe- ;clll Officer Berge were close by at the | time. They arrested the woman and | sent the wounded Japanese to the Cen- | tral Emergency Hospital. The bullet had struck the unfortunate Japanese | on the right temple rendering him un- | conscious. | Mrs. Forsyth said that when she raised the rifle to her shotlder some one spoke from behind to her and she wheeled around. To her surprise the | rifle was discharged. She thought her cape got caught in the trigger. Max Schwartz was an eye witness and he declares that Mrs. Forsyth deliberately turned around, pointed the rifle at the Japanese and fired. Detective Coleman has been detailed on the case. He found that Mrs. For- syth wae living in a hovel in the base- ment of 2410 Jones street and that her record for sobriety is not good. He was informed that she has a husband who works in the sugar refinery, but | Policeman George Collins, who knew { her family in Oakland, said that her | husband, Edward Forsyth, captain of | a coasting schooner, was washed over- jbnard and drowned while at sea some years ago. —————— | VISITOR TELLS DOUBTFUL STORY OF DARING HOLDUP | A. O. Hess Says He Was Robbed of $200 by Masked Man, but De- cides to Let Matter Drop. A. O. Hess, who claims to be a | clergyman from Portland, related to the police yesterday a weird tale of being held up by a masked man at Montgomery avenue and Pacific street shortly after midnight yesterday morning and robbed of $200 and a - watch. He saild he was seeing the sights with a friend whom he met on the street and that the latter left him a minute before the masked man appeared. | A dispatch from Portland says that PHess had a similar experience there some time ago, but his story was re- ceived with some doubt. However, he gained much sympathy and received | financial aid at the time. Hess prom- | ised to come to Captain Burnett's of- | fice at 7:30 last night and aid the de- tectives in capturing the alleged rob- ber. He called, but told Captain Bur- nett that he had secured a job with let the matter drop. —————— Last Chance to See World's Fair.

D. Loveland, vice president for | California for the Trans-Mississippl | Commercial Congress, started for the East last evening to attend the con- STRONG | PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND. gress, which will convene at St. Louis next Tu‘eudny and remain in sesisonfive days. The other members of the Cal- ifornia delegation are somewhat scat- tered. Several are in St. Louis at- tending the St. Louis Exposition, and this fact led to their appointment, in- suring a full attendance for California at the deliberations that will take place relating to large interests and affairs west of the Mississippi River. Advance information has been re- ceived concerning some of the topics that will be treated by iIndividual speakers. The general committee work and the determination of poli- cies for the congress to adopt will en- gage the attention of the delegates more than the set speeches. S Among the accomplishments that are claimed for the Trans-Mississippl Congress are the irrigation act; the creation of a department of com- merce; securing degqp water at Gal- veston, Houston and New Orleans; | the construction of irrigation canals and reservoirs and the successful ad- vocacy of other public measures of different sorts. The California delegation to the congress will probably confer at St. Louis and map out a line of policy to be pursued in harmony with the in- terests of California. Among the speakers who are to address the con- gress are John Hays Hammond, James R. Garfield of the Department of Commerce and Labor, Charles Je- rome Bonaparte, president of the Na- tional Municipal Reform Association; F. H. Newell, chief of the reclamation service of the Department of the In- terior; Gifford Pinchot of the Bureau of Forestry of the United States; F. J. Hagenbarth, president of the Amer- ican Live Stock Association; Martin Dodge, director of road inquiries, and Alexander H. Revell, vice president of | the National Business League. The last named will discuss the question of having the President of the United | States elected for one term only. Pres- ident Diaz of Mexico may attend the congress. Among the topics to be discussed are rivers, waterways and harbors, merchant marine, trade with the Ori- ent, consular service, statehood, rail- way transportation, preservation of forests, the sugar industry of the United States, trade with Mexico, ex- ports and imports through the Gulf and Pacific ports, the encouragement of home manufactures, good roads and drainage, the Lewis and Clark Exposition in 1805, the proposed na- tional Department of Mines and Min- ing, trade with Canada and trade with Alaska. —_—— Bales Not a Beneficiary. | The police ascertained yesterday that Ernest N. Bales is not a benefi- ciary in the will of Mrs. Annie Engel- | berg, whom he is alleged to have ac- | cidentally shot last Thursday night. Mrs. Engelberg willed most of her possessions to a cousin in Gilroy. This discovery leads the police to believe that Bales is innocent of any crime, and unless the Coroner’s jury holds him, he will be dismissed from cus- tody. —_——— May Not Sign Death Certificates. Deputy Health Officer Levy received notification yesterday that the Attor- ney General of California had rendered an opinion that osteopaths are not en- titled under the law to sign death cer- tificates. The act of the Legislature permitting osteopaths to practice does not carry with it their recognition as duly licensed physicians, the Attorney General says. —_——— Stone Must Stand Trial. Walter J. Stone, a collector, who was arrested last week by Detectives ! Dinan and Wren, was booked at the | City Prison vesterday on two charges of felony embezzlement.

The answer is simple. - It is lack of nerve force. Science with its unerring methods of research has proved that the various organs and tissues of the body continue in health and perform their, work properly as long as their nerve supply re- tains its vigor and strength. But if the nerves degenerate or lose power from poor nourishment or any other cause, the entire physiological mech- anism of the body is thrown out of gear and we have as a result some pronounced “run-down ondition or disease 5 . The heart, the stomacn, the liver, all have their. great nerve centres which supply them with the power to work properly. When these nerve cen- tres are weakened these important organs cannot - act properly. g “The experience of Charles E. Stacy s a case In point. ; " Brooklyn, N.

JAPANESE PRESENT DRAMA OF CONFLICT IN THE EAST HORSE STOLEN FROM POUND.—James Steight was arrested yesterday on Beraal Heizhts road and accused of stealing & horse from the pound. ADVERTISEMENTS. 26 in Few Japs Slay Many Bearded Russians. Like a melodrama of the American Civil War was the Japanese play, “Ainoko”—"“The Halfbreed”—presented at Union Square Hall last night. Only there were Japanese instead of North- erners. Bearded Russians, or rather the Japanese conception of the bearded Russian, stood in lieu of Southerners. Whoever says that the Japanese are an unemotional race shoui. have been at that play last night. When an army of three Japanese charged through an army of seven Russians and performed [ feats of jui jitsu upon the Slavs, while the bombs were bursting in air, the gallery was as excited as the Central . Theater on {aturday night. There Is a plot in the thing that might give some American concocters of melo- drama valuable material. The play | was given to raise funds for the wid- ows and orphans of soldiers killed in | battle. The tale is of a Japanese halfbreed, whose father is a Russian named Dro- ski. War is declared and the father is one of the besieged at Port Arthur, while the son is with the Japanese army outside. The father escapes, dis- guised as a Chihese coolie, but is cap- tured by Japanese privates, who beat him cruelly. A colonel of the Japs rescues him and turns him over to the son.
